Quoting

Clients prefer quotes to include travel and accommodation where possible.

Please note that FixTheMusic deducts 18% from your quote. A neat calculation is to divide by 0.82. If you want to receive 1500.00 GBP / EUR then quote 1829.27 GBP / EUR because 1500.00 / 0.82 = 1829.27.

Hello Nicholas,

Thank you very much for contacting us. We are available on that date and it would be a honour to become part of your proposel. Just to clarify, will it take place inside the Palau, or at the street?

We can prepare your special song request, and you can take a look of our repertory (attached).

We would ask you for €1.524, all included.

Let us know if it works for you.

Cheers

Hello, thank you for the quick response!
I am so happy it works for you.

The proposal will be inside the Palau, still confirming which room, so I will keep you updated.

The price works.

The only questions I have are: how do I pay? And is there a point of contact person I can text/call so I make sure I can coordinate between you and the venue before and during the proposal day?

Thank you,

Hello Nicholas,

Perfect. An 18% commission is paid online, for FtM.

The remaining payment, €1.250, can be paid by cash on the day of the event if that’s OK for you.

Yes, once you pay the deposit the event is confirmed and then we can give you our contact details to organise it.

Cheers

Hi, I spoke with the venue. I will need the musicians full names and phone numbers that are coming into the Palau.

When we speak later this week we can go into more detail.

The most important song is Robert Glasper's “Ah Yeah”.   I am thinking for you can start with Vivaldi before we enter so it seems like you are apart of the Palau naturally rehearsing for a concert. Then after we enter and that song finishes. You can play the proposal song (Ah Yeah). And then after she says yes, you can go into the other more pop cover songs

The songs to play are the following:
Spring / Primavera (Antonio Vivaldi)
Ah yeah (Robert Glasper) - proposal song
Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You (Frankie Valli)
Can’t Help Falling In Love (Elvis Presley)

We should be entering the room about 12:45p/1p but I’ll have a person help cue the timing for you to begin.

We have the room from 12-2p, so you can get set up.

Let me know if this all works for you?

Thank you,

Did you receive our names and phone numbers?

Hi, and thank you for the follow-up email.
I'm sorry for not getting back to you sooner. I have received the phone numbers and sent them to the venue. They are also asking for your DNI numbers. Can you please provide them?

The event will take place in the rehearsal room underneath the main stage. We are surprising my girlfriend, pretending it's a private tour. I will have a photographer coming who will pretend to be a part of your band until the moment comes.

Before you get to the Sala Assaig, you will need to register with your names and DNI at Palau’s reception.

I will provide you with a point of contact if you need any help during the event.

I am free to chat on Friday at 3p (Spain time).
Who should I call?

Thank you again!
